Normally BA flights from LHR to HEL deplane direct to the non-schengen gate area, from where the plane will board a bit later. BA usually uses gates close to the Finnair Oneworld lounge, so enjoy that as well. If you are bussed to the terminal from a stand position, you need to follow the transfer route to get back to the gate area (do not enter baggage claim or passport control), around 5 minutes walk back to the bus/other gates, probably no transfer security (but could happen sometimes). Definitely do online checkin in advance so you have your boarding passes ready. HEL is a relatively small airport. Welcome to HEL ;-)
